„Iunderstood, Iwill go backto discusswith others together,gainsmorebenefits...... the Ansitanosresponseto sayfor the kingdomin the treaty of alliance”.
“我明白了,我会回去同其他人一起商议,在盟约上为王国争取更多的利益……”安西塔诺斯回应道。„Also......”Davoshesitant, said: „Resigns from the foreign ministerincidentaboutyou, do youwantto reconsideragain? A war could startshortly, moreoverinintriguingGreece, the diplomatic workismost important, needsyoursuchexperiencedold ministerto steer, howcan, whenthiskeydoes leave?”
“还有啊……”戴弗斯犹豫了一下,说道:“关于你辞去外交大臣一事,你要不要再重新考虑一下?眼看着一场战争可能又要开始了,而且又是在错综复杂的希腊本土,外交事务是重中之重,正是需要你这样经验丰富的老臣来掌舵,怎么能够在这个关键的时候离开呢?”Ansitanosstretches out the skinnyfinger, feelsheadgrayish whitehair, said: „Your majesty, Iam old, the sufficientenergyhas not dealt with the soheavytask, particularlywhenwarforthcoming. The duty that might as wellresigns the foreign minister, the rest oftimeis some matter that with a sense of urgencylikesdoing, for examplehurry«First20Years of Kingdom of TheoniaHistory»write.”安西塔诺斯伸出自己枯瘦的手指,摸着头上灰白的头发,说道:“陛下,我老啦,已经没有足够的精力应付如此繁重的任务,尤其是在战争即将发生的时候。还不如辞掉外交大臣的职务,抓紧剩余的时间做一些自己喜欢做的事,比如赶紧把《前20年戴奥尼亚王国史》撰写出来。”„Good......”Davosreluctantly, has not thoughtagain,thensaid: „Ilooked atyoulisted the candidate of foreign minister, consideredis very long, thoughttowerPirusis more suitable, hemade the great meritinwestMediterraneanwarandGallic Wars, the qualifications and abilityare enough, do youfeel?”
“好吧……”戴弗斯没有再勉强,想了想,接着说道:“我看了你所列出的外交大臣的人选,考虑了很久,觉得塔皮鲁斯更适合一些,他在西地中海战争和高卢战争中都立下了大功,无论是资历和能力都已经足够,你觉得呢?”„Your majestydecision, Ifullyapprove.”Ansitanosnotscrupleansweringcovered passageway.
“陛下的决定,我完全赞同。”安西塔诺斯没有迟疑的答复道。„Thenafterand otherandtreaty of alliancesigning of Thebes, Iwill callsixauxiliaryChengchih Universityfeudal officials, determinesthismatter.”
“那就等这次与底比斯的盟约签订之后,我会召集六位辅政大臣,将这件事确定下来。”„Yes, your majesty.”
“是,陛下。”„Henie, deliversyourteacherforme.”
“赫尼,替我送一送你的老师。”„Teacher, how manyyour«First20Years of Kingdom of TheoniaHistory»has written?

“老师,你那本《前20年戴奥尼亚王国史》已经写多少了?最好和我的《西地中海记》在同一个时间对外发表,这样便于读者们能够相互对照,有详有略,更有利于他们了解那段时期的历史……”赫尼波里斯在送安西塔诺斯的途中,还滔滔不绝的说个不停。Ansitanoscontinuouslypeacefulis listening, occasionallyresponded totwo, untilgoing out ofroyal palace, heserioussaying: „HeniePolis, youlatermustpay attention toyouto the tone that your majestyspoke, should better notsoto be again casual!”安西塔诺斯一直安静的听着,偶尔回应两声,直到走出了王宫,他才神情严肃的说道:“赫尼波里斯,你以后要注意你对陛下说话的语气,最好不要再那么随便!”„Iamhave spokentoyour majestylike this, whatissuehas?”HeniePolisis somewhat puzzled.
“我一直就是这样对陛下说话的,有什么问题吗?”赫尼波里斯有些不解。„Before presentyour majestyis not, is not only unprecedentedin the kingdomprestige, but also the powerwas also bigger!......”Ansitanossigh with emotionlow voiceis saying, in the mind is also reappearing the scene: Beforehealtogetherrecommended the candidatecandidates of fourforeign ministers, includingthreearehisstudent, the qualifications and meritdid not missintowerPirus, butDavoschoserelatednotthatclosetowerPiruswithhim.

“现在的陛下已经不是以前了,不但在王国威望空前,而且权力也更加的大了!……”安西塔诺斯感慨的小声说着,脑海中还浮现着刚才的情景:之前他一共推荐了四位外交大臣的候补人选,其中有三个是他的学生,无论是资历和功绩都不差于塔皮鲁斯,但戴弗斯偏偏就选择了跟他关系不那么紧密的塔皮鲁斯。如果是在几年前,像王国外交大臣这样的重要人事任命一般要经过大臣们的讨论,最后交由元老院商议通过,而现在只需要陛下和六位辅政大臣商议,大致就可以决定,基本就是由戴弗斯一言而决。„Teacher, your majestyas before, andis no different, wasyouwants.”HeniePolishas the differentviews, in turncomfortsAnsitanos.
“老师,陛下和以前一样,并没有什么不同,是您想多了。”赫尼波里斯对此有不同的看法,反过来宽慰安西塔诺斯。Ansitanos can only sayonereluctantly: „It seems like Iwas really old, alwayslikedindulging in flights of fancy......”安西塔诺斯只能无奈的说了一句:“看来是我真的老了,老爱胡思乱想……”..........................................
……………………………………„After CulleyLancetcontract”signing, according tocontractual requirement: Each of the contracting partiesmustrecall the armystationed abroad, anddemolishesoutside the militaryfort in nation.
“卡利阿斯合约”签订之后,按合约规定:缔约各方务必召回驻外军队,并且拆除在外邦的军事要塞。ThereforeAthensis recallingIphicratesstationed inZillato lead the army, butSpartahas not carried out the contract, on the contraryafterknowing„Thebessends the envoygoes abroad on a diplomatic missionTheonia” the news, the Spartapersonhad the sense of urgency, theywantto send outenvoyXenophonto go toTheonia, convincedKing Davosto the Thebespersondo not provide the support, PersiaenvoyDardis but who had not leftwarned that the SpartapersoncannotcommunicatedenselywithTheonia, andadded: In order tosupportSpartadisciplinary punishmentThebes, PersiagiftSpartaa lot ofcommoditiesbyMiletus'sfleetdelivery, quickwill be arriving.
因此雅典正在召回驻扎在克基拉的伊菲克拉特斯所率军队,但斯巴达并没有执行合约,相反在得知“底比斯派使者出使戴奥尼亚”的消息之后,斯巴达人更是有了紧迫感,他们本想又派出使者色诺芬前往戴奥尼亚,说服戴弗斯国王不要给底比斯人提供支持,但是一直未离开的波斯使者达提斯却警告斯巴达人不可与戴奥尼亚来往过密,并且还说:为了支持斯巴达惩戒底比斯,波斯赠予斯巴达的大量物资正由米利都的船队运载,很快就会到来。Under such a situation, Spartadecidesfirstto launch the attacktoThebes. ThisSpartapersonconvenes the alliancearmyis the unprecedentedquickness, becauseAgesilausis ill, the armyis commandedbyanotherSpartaWang KeliAumBroTusas before, before the contractsignshehas been orderedto be stationed in Kiess, the reinforcementscommanded the armyto cross the Corinthbay in May, hurried toconvergeswithhim.
在这样的一种局势下,斯巴达决定抢先对底比斯发动攻击。这一次斯巴达人召集联盟军队是前所未有的快捷,由于阿格西劳斯身体不适,军队依旧是由另一位斯巴达王克利奥姆布洛图斯统帅,而在合约签订之前他已经奉命驻扎在佛基斯境内,援军于5月率军渡过科林斯湾,赶去与他汇合。At this time, „TheoniaandThebesbecameunion” the newshad passed toSparta, makingSpartapeoplefeelanxious.
这时,“戴奥尼亚与底比斯结为同盟”的消息已经传到了斯巴达,让斯巴达人感到了紧张。Afterward, TheoniaenvoytowerPirusalsoarrived atSparta, reminded the elderpowwow: Theoniahas formed an alliancewithThebes, hopingSpartacanwith the Thebestruce, regain the peace, avoidingTheoniahas tobe involved in the warbecause of the treaty of alliance, thusdestroysmore than 10 yearsTheonia and Spartafriendship.
随后,戴奥尼亚的使者塔皮鲁斯也来到了斯巴达,提醒长老议事会:戴奥尼亚已经与底比斯结盟,希望斯巴达能够与底比斯停战,恢复和平,避免戴奥尼亚不得不因为盟约而卷入战争,从而破坏10多年来戴奥尼亚与斯巴达的友谊。
The eldersheaded byAgesilaussaid: PreviouslySpartadoes not knowTheoniahas formed an alliancewithThebes, thereforearmyalready, evenhas possibly battledwithThebes. In such a case, withdraws the armyvery muchdifficultlyin a short time, buttheirdoing utmostwill makeGreeceregain the peace.
以阿格西劳斯为首的长老们却表示:此前斯巴达并不知道戴奥尼亚已经与底比斯结盟,因此大军已经出发,甚至可能已经与底比斯交战。在这样的情况下,很难在短时间内将军队重新撤回,不过他们会竭尽全力让希腊恢复和平。TowerPirussawbeing perfunctory of Spartaperson, buthis tripdefers to the traditionaletiquetteto give an notice, King Davoshas not wantedhimto preventwar, thereforetowerPirussaid goodbyeto departquickly, encounteredPersiaenvoyDardison the way ofgoing out of town, encountereditsmalicious talkthreat and ridicule.
塔皮鲁斯看出了斯巴达人的敷衍,但他此行只是按照传统礼仪来做一个通知而已,戴弗斯国王并没有要他阻止战争的发生,所以塔皮鲁斯很快告辞离去,在出城途中还遭遇了波斯使者达提斯,遭到其的恶言威胁和讥讽。Saw that the Spartapersonmostlystoodon the side of the Persiaenvoy, enemynumerousIwidowed, towerPirushas not refutedfull power, after dealing withseveral, leftdistressedly, butthisshameinheart.
看到斯巴达人大多站在了波斯使者一边,敌众我寡,塔皮鲁斯没有全力反驳,应付了几句之后就狼狈离开,但将这番羞辱记在心底。
In mid June, KerryAumBroTusstations troopsinKiessandPiaoxiagatewayColonia, the after reinforcements of waitingsuccessorarrive, immediatelytoThebesmarches.
6月中旬,克利奥姆布洛图斯屯兵于佛基斯与皮奥夏的门户克罗尼亚,等待后继的援军都到达之后,立即向底比斯进军。NowallGreekpeoplebelieve that the decisive battle of ThebesandSpartais inevitable, but the Spartavastmilitary powermakesthembelieve: Spartahas the overwhelming superiority, thenwaited forThebesthoroughlyto be destroyedorbecome the good play of puppetSpartacontrolled.
现在所有希腊本土的民众都相信底比斯与斯巴达的决战不可避免,而斯巴达浩大的军势更让他们相信:斯巴达占据着绝对优势,接下来就只是等待底比斯被彻底摧毁或者成为斯巴达所控制的傀儡的好戏了。ManyThebespeopledo not have the hopeto the victory, evenputs on a long face the suggestion: SurrenderstoSparta.
就连不少底比斯人对胜利也不抱希望,甚至哭丧着脸建议:向斯巴达投降。Somecity-statesuch asAthenstakes pleasure in others' misfortunesinThebeswill soon meet with a disaster;Somecity-statesuch as the Argoshearthas the intimacy, isThebesprayedsilently;Minoritycity-stateextended the aidatthis timetoThebes, most famousisThessalyGooseJason, hebecame the uniononeyear ago withThebesquietly, whenthiskey, sends300Thessalycavalriesthrough the sea routetoThebes( becauseThermopylae of land routewas controlledbySparta, Thessalianimpossibleto go souththroughit).
一些城邦如雅典幸灾乐祸于底比斯即将遭殃;一些城邦如阿哥斯则心有戚戚,默默为底比斯祈祷;还有少数城邦在这个时候向底比斯伸出了援手,最著名的莫过于塞萨利的塔古斯伊阿宋,他早在一年前就悄悄地与底比斯结为了同盟,并在这个关键的时候,通过海路向底比斯运送来三百名塞萨利骑兵(因为陆路的温泉关被斯巴达掌控,塞萨利人不可能通过其南下)。
In early July, KerryAumBroTusmakes the armyfastbeyond expectationthrough a narrow winding path of mountain ridge, avoided the ambush of Thebesallied armies, toDardis, attacksharbor that Thebesheldonly- to subdue|gramscolored glazeHeath, seizedThebes not manywarships, thusensured the security of escape route.
7月初,克里奥姆布洛图斯出人意料的让军队快速通过山岭的一条羊肠小道,避开了底比斯联军的埋伏,到达提斯比,突袭了底比斯唯一占有的海港-克琉西斯,缴获了底比斯不多的战船,从而确保了后路的安全。Recuperationtwodayslater, the Spartaallied armies of more than 10,000soldiersthenmarchtonorthThebesdirectly. Whenarrives at the Leuktrahigh ground, the Spartapersondiscovered that the frontpathhad been closed offby the Thebesarmy.
休整两天之后,有一万多士兵的斯巴达联军又接着径直向北面的底比斯进军。在到达留克特拉高地的时候,斯巴达人发现前方的道路已经被底比斯军队封锁。Afteroriginally the Spartaallied armiesenterPiaoxiawithin the boundaries, manyThebesgeneralthink: Spartaallied armiesthreatening, the populationalsogreatlyexceeded the past, is unable to oppose the enemywithitdirectly, thereforesuggestedto evadeitspointtemporarily, gave up the militaryfort in surrounding, returned to the Thebescityto defend.
原本当斯巴达联军进入皮奥夏境内之后,不少底比斯将领认为:斯巴达联军这一次来势汹汹,人数也大大超过以往,无法与之正面对敌,所以就建议暂时避其锋芒,放弃外围的军事要塞,退回底比斯城进行防御。HoweverdensegrandDaresolutelyopposed, hisfirmconsidering: Shouldmeet the approaching enemy the enemyon own initiative, butcannotSpartato invade the Thebescore region, otherwisemakeshimtryto destroy the farmland and villagegreatly, will knock the determination that the citizenfights.
但是伊帕密隆达坚决反对,他坚定的认为:应该主动迎击敌军,而不能让斯巴达人侵入底比斯的核心区域,否则让其大试破坏农田与村庄,会动摇公民战斗的决心。Becausetheseyear of densegrandDaled the Thebespersonsuccessfullyto resist the invasion of Spartaallied armies, enablingitto have very highprestigein the citizen, in additionhehad been elected the military officers of PiaoxiaAllianceat this time( the highestduty of PiaoxiaAlliance, oneyearelected, onetwo, anotherwasPelopidas), butPelopidasfully supportsdensegrandDadecision that has returned to the Thebescity, thereforePiaoxiaAllianceheaded byThebesdecidedand a Spartaallied armieslife and deathwarfinally.
由于这些年伊帕密隆达率领底比斯人成功抵御了斯巴达联军的入侵,使其在公民中拥有很高的声望,再加上他此时已经当选为皮奥夏联盟的军事长官(皮奥夏联盟的最高职务,一年一选,一次两名,另一位是佩洛皮达斯),而已经回到底比斯城的佩洛皮达斯全力支持伊帕密隆达的决定,因此以底比斯为首的皮奥夏联盟最终决定与斯巴达联军决死一战。DensegrandDaleads all forces of PiaoxiaAllied armiesapproximatelyto be6000people, rushed to the Leuktrahigh groundearly, awaits calmly the arrival of enemy.
伊帕密隆达率领皮奥夏联军的所有兵力大约为6000人,早早的赶到了留克特拉高地,静待敌军的到来。
The Leuktrahigh groundis located insouth the Thebesplain, fullarrange/clothlowhill, includingcircularsummitis quite smooth, CommanderThebesandmaingeneralare , is also the place of rewiringinfantrygathering.
留克特拉高地位于底比斯所处的平原南端,满布低矮的山丘,其中有一座圆形山顶比较平坦,正是底比斯指挥官和主要将领所在,也是重装步兵屯集之地。AfterdensegrandDaknew the Spartaallied armiesarrive, has not immediately started the stance that arrangesformationandto show to engage in a decisive battle, butmoves toarmed forces'opposite ofhilltoSpartaallied armiesinhabit region, startsto build the camp.
当伊帕密隆达得知斯巴达联军到达之后,并没有马上就开始排列阵型、摆出要会战的架势,而是移军至斯巴达联军聚居地对面的山丘,开始修筑营地。At this time, someThebesgeneralsuggesteddensegrandDa: Shouldjustmarchwhile the Spartapersonhence, when troops worn out by long campaigning, launches the attack.
此时,一些底比斯将领建议伊帕密隆达:应该趁着斯巴达人刚行军至此,师老兵疲之际,向其发动进攻。DensegrandDahas not accepted.
伊帕密隆达没有采纳。By2ndday, the Spartapersonhad not taken the military action, butCorioMbuRotousshas searchedto know the PiaoxiaAllied armiespopulation in oppositecampobviously less than itselfthrough the sentry post, thisurgedhimto lead the fullrecuperationgoodSpartaallied armiesto have the campin3rddayfinallyvery early in the morning, startedto arrangeformationalong the gentlehillside.
到了第二天,斯巴达人还是没有采取军事行动,但克利奥姆布罗图斯已经通过哨探得知对面营地里的皮奥夏联军人数明显少于自己,这终于促使他在第三天一早就率领已经充分休整好的斯巴达联军出了营地,沿着平缓的山坡开始排列阵型。
After densegrandDalearns of the news, immediatelyrushes tooutside the camp, looks into the distanceto the oppositehill, immediatelyshowed the happy expression: The battleformation that because the set up formation of Spartaallied armiesparticipated in the pastSpartapersonhad no change, was the armysets up in an arrayas before, wears the Spartasoldier of redovercoatsituated inright flank, andhighlightedin the entirearray.
伊帕密隆达得知消息后,立刻赶到营地外,向对面山丘眺望,随即露出了笑意:因为斯巴达联军的布阵跟以往斯巴达人所参与的会战阵型没有什么变化,依旧是军队一字排开,身穿红色大氅的斯巴达战士处于右翼,并且突出于整个阵列。
